Dynamic Democracy

When I walk up to the small voting booth and slip my card into the bright machine, I pause and contemplate our history of struggle to survive ten thousand years, how wily men organized angry men into armies who forged weapons of death, stormed high pyramids, palaces, and castles where they crowned themselves to play god on Earth through subjugating everyone alive to play submissive roles of daily tasks in ruling empires that produce more food, then exercise my sacred right to vote for honest person with vision of truth, this right we won through centuries of war against greedy kings and violent tyrants, by touching the name of the soul I trust to guide our nation on right path of love, and with that gesture, when I touch the screen to choose who will play god over our nation, I support dynamic Democracy by choosing Hillary as President of our United States of America, for she leads angels of honest compassion in grand army of justice to protect our individual rights and liberty to live free as we will, if we harm none, then all together sea to shining sea we hold hands and celebrate victory of honest freedom over tyranny in endless struggle of life against death.

About Me

I am a cartographer, geospatial analyst, and terrain developer by day, and epic poet by night.

I am writing an epic poem in blank verse titled Hermead about scientists and inventors of civilization. This bible for atheists and scientists is now 120,000 lines of blank verse covering the lives of 25 Greek philosophers.

I posted about 200 songs I wrote and composed at http://youtube.com/surazeus but do not expect anything more than amateur fun folk singing.

I was born in Oregon in the Year of the Beatles, grew up in Texas in the 1970s, went to high school and college in Takoma (Washington state) in the 1980s. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts in 1988 at Washington State University. After living in Seattle for a few years, I hitchhiked around the country playing grunge folk in the 1990s.

I got a job as web designer at State of Michigan 1999-2004, then earned a Master of Science in Geographic Information Science 2005-8 at Michigan State University.

I have since lived in North Carolina and now in Georgia working as a cartographer. Where will I go next on the journey of life? My goal is to become a Professor of Literature at Harvard, which was founded by my ancestor, Thomas Dudley.

I married an Indonesian Muslim woman from Java Island and we have two cute daughters I named for goddesses of wisdom -- Saraswati and Athena.

I am generally a Gnostic Humanist. I do not know if there is a God or not, but the gods of history were humans who had a large influence on their times. What is most important is that I know myself and understand my perceptions, and recreate them in verse.

I am descended 13 generations from the Puritan Poet Anne Bradstreet. Her father, Thomas Dudley, signed the charter to found Harvard, and was descended from the Sutton-Dudley clan of Elizabethan England, who were descended from Joan of Acre, daughter of King Edward I and Eleanor of Castile.

My religion is Astarism.

Astarism honors First Mother Astara Ishtar Athena.

Ishtar sent Abraham and Sarah west and they founded Assurism, Olympism, Apollonism, Zoroastrianism, Mithraism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Sufism, and all their branches and offshoots.

Ishtar sent Brahma and Saraswati east and they founded Hinduism, Vaishnism, Shaivism, Buddhism, Krishnaism, Sikhism, and all their branches and offshoots.
